Re: Motion capture

#18
I think that an actual motion capture could make the animations (only for human characters obviously...) a lot better, this is what I think about the humanoid characters in-game:
1) Class-Ds: they really need some better animations; yeah, there are more important things to focus on but I really think that some of Class-Ds ones (particularry the standing animation or the falling animation that plays when they get killed by SCP-173 in the intro) really need some tweaks...
2) Scientists: they are pretty much fine, maybe you could give the scientist that walks at a door in the intro a less "gangster" feel like Irontaco and Omniary said (maybe he could hold a clipboard and look at a document on it while he's walking to the door?). The scientist that runs away from SCP-106 has pretty nice movements.
3) Guards/MTFs: it looks like they have wooden legs... :laugh: Making their leg movements more natural is the only real problem with them (I think that they should bend them while walking...) And I think that the guard in the event with SCP-096 should have a running animation when he actually runs (not "walks"...) away from SCP-096...
4) SCP-096: the only problem here is the "angering" animation: he should shake like a crazy dude, in the game he looks more like he's having a very strong headcache... :laugh: Other that that he's pretty much fine... (maybe even his run could be more "crazy" but that's not so important since the actual one is pretty good. And I think that he should really use some of the new animations made by Night... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnonwQz0Ddc )
5) SCP-049: he is pretty much fine, I don't think that there is so much to do with him that could involve the use of new animations...
6) SCP-049-1: except for their really strange way of attacking the player, in my opinion the zombies are the best-animated characters in the game.
7) SCP-513-1: he's fine in-game, probably we could improve it somehow but what kind of movements should he do?
